This is one “big” reply to all of the feedback that I received from my article, Everybody is Faking It. First I wanted to thank all of you who took the time to read my post as well as those who made the extra effort to leave a comment. Thank you. Your words are valuable to me and more importantly an indicator that I’m not producing absolute rubbish, but instead thought provoking rubbish.

So the comments were on both ends of the spectrum. There was wonderful praise and staunch criticism. We all love when a firm clap on the back is received for a job well done. On the other hand I for one equally adore formal critique. After all, how is one supposed to better their craft if it isn’t scrutinized by peers?

I found that while some digested the ideas that I presented, others concentrated on my form. Form can be critical but isn’t it more important to investigate the content? This is the separation between arguing semantics and discussing meaning. It is my hope that the material that I cast out into the void, that is the collective conscience of the internet, will spark constructive candor. Surprisingly the referenced article struck a cord and did just that.

Thank you all for joining me in this fleeting fancy that is my blog.
